2007 Mitsubishi Outlander

Was working at my local Mitsu dealer, when the service manager told me he spoke to a dealer in Florida that had tinted 10 new '07 Outlanders and the film peeled up on all the roll ups. In fact Mitsu sent a bulletin to all their dealers telling them NOT to tint that vehicle because of a new window channel system. Anyone hear of this? Tinted one?

there has gotta be a way, might need to pull the panels off and put the bottom edge of the film far down

I wonder if the new 2007 Outlander in America is a new model from the original?
I've only ever done one and that was about 3 years ago and never had it come back.
I did pull the trims however.

florida tinters need to get better

yeah that sounds like crap screw that, its only 10 out of millions.......... someone gots to be able to do it, just liek someone said u cant put one piece of film on the bg and look now we can.....

done quite a few of the previous model, I also own one, never had a problem. Can't imagine mitsubishi changing the design that radically - although it has had a face lift. Difference must be that we pull panels and film edge sits about 3cm below channel.

I thing previous poster was on the money when he said that Florida installer needs to get better - or quit .

I just did a 07 and it worked fine for me. I will post pics later.

My neighbor has one and was tinted through the dealer....I know the shop that did it..

Looks fine to me...

I have 4 to do next week - joy!

Update:- I did 2 today. The panels pull very easily, 3 screws and it pops off. The rub rail can be eaily pulled out. It is a plastic one with a double scraper, I did'nt felt it as I was mobile but we will see what happens with that.

With regard to the problems people have been having I noticed today that on one of the cars, when the window gets to the top the window clucks and jumps outwards, almost as if it is making a better seal, the movement is quite severe, it would cause the film to flick off if you did'nt pull the panels, I know- - I tried it first!!

Pull the panels and possibly felt them I you should be good.

I was looking at one the other day that was in the accessory shop getting a hitch didnt look too bad to me the door panel is pretty tight against the window is the only thing i saw that looked hard.

If somebody tried to cut their film short just enough to not get a light gap at the bottom i could see that tight gasket rubbing the bottom of the film loose maybe

Just got done doing the 2 fronts, visor and the sunroof on one. Those seals are cake! Gasket wizard could help a little but all I needed to use was my lil chizzler

The gaskets are hard plastic and tight against the window so this badmambajamba might need to be felted.

Does anyone know how to remove the rear view mirror on it?

is it the mirror like on KIA suvs?

if you can get a picture of it that would help

Order extra felt/Moleskin, next one [Outlander] on the list of run of the mill cars that need more upsell.
